I ran across this trolling around, not sure how long it's been out. They have reviewed other LEGO and MB sets in the past. (URL) site is collectible toy focused rather than LEGO focused... so their emphasis is on play value and the number of figures (...)

Wow, nice MOC. And that is a HUGE barn!! Great design on it though, I really like it! And also, great design with the cellar/basement do.r! If only you'd made the entire thing on a hill so you could include the basement. Great work!!! -Mark Visit (...) (21 years ago, 28-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Back in 2001 the LEGO Shop-at-Home catalog showed "instructions" for building a schoolhouse with bulk packs. I can't find my 2001 catalogs. Can someone who has one please scan that page for me? Russell (21 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.db.scans, lugnet.inst, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.town)

(...) Yes, that is a hand-pushed lawnmower leaning against the house. At the Indianapolis GATS I had a guy actually mowing the lawn; the unmowed grass was green plates on top of the baseplate, and the mowed grass was green tiles beside that. I'll (...) (21 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the white ramps are quite obnoxious looking and interrupt the vertical thrust of the building. They are there explicitly to add rather blatant dissonance. Not only does the shape not match, but the "white" (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-04, to lugnet.town)

Cooleth! In addition to the barn construction itself, my favorite details are the guy stripping bark off of logs, the buggies, and what looks to be a hand-pushed lawnmower leaning against the house (could you put up a clearer picture of this?). I'm (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-04, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) I like your garden models, particularly the two above. The bush was nice and simple to make from 20 of the 3-leaf parts from Ninja castles. The apple tree was a bit more difficult. I'm guessing you used about 6 6x5 and 2 4x3 plant leaves. The (...) (21 years ago, 25-Apr-04, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town, FTX)
